Question

Explain, in writing, the steps in graphing and finding the solution to the system of equations.

Answer 1

Answer:

Feel free to copy and paste:

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept. To do this, use y=mx+b. Plug the variables where m=1 and b=2. Slope of the line is m and y-intercept is value of b, so the slope is 1 while the y-intercept is (0,2). Any line can be graphed using two points, and using two x values to plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y values: 0=x+2 is (-2,0). Y-intercept is already known, so use the known values and make a table where x= -2,0 and y = 0,2. Now, graph the line using the slope, y-intercept, and known points (-2,0), (0,-2) to plot the graph. Coincidingly, the answer to solve your system of equations will be the x-intercept: (-2,0).
